Boomi Agent Garden

Updated 

Boomi Agent Garden is a no-code interface for using and managing the AI agents you build in Agent Designer.

In Agent Garden, you can:

  • Chat with agents. Prompt agents in natural language and run multi-step tasks. Agents use conversation memory, so they can build on your earlier inputs to finish tasks faster.
  • Manage agents. Test, deploy, export, import, duplicate, and favorite agents.
  • Import agents from the community. Start from the template gallery or the Boomi Marketplace on the Agent Garden home page.

Agent Garden is the Orchestrate phase of the AI agent lifecycle. You design agents in Agent Designer, orchestrate them here by coordinating their deployment, sharing, and use, and govern them in the Agent Control Tower.

New to AI agents? An AI agent is a software component with a defined objective and personality that guides its actions and decisions. Refer to Refer to About AI agents to learn how agents can benefit your organization and when to create one.

Benefits

Agent Garden helps your organization:

  • Bring AI agents into business processes to boost productivity.
  • Give team members a no-code, conversational way to work with agents.
  • Use agents you create or import them from other Boomi Platform accounts, with minimal setup.
  • Access Boomi-created agents through Boomi GPT.

Access and privileges

Agent Garden is included in the Base edition of Agentstudio. To view the AI Agent Garden, click the Agentstudio icon on the platform's Home screen.

note

To accept requests from the Agent Garden, allow incoming traffic from the following IP addresses:

North America Platform

  • 3.214.191.234
  • 54.210.113.194

United Kingdom Platform

  • 35.177.131.116
  • 18.134.189.138

User Management includes three Agent Garden roles:

  • User
  • Developer
  • Administrator

As an administrator, you can give your users controlled access to the Agent Garden. For example, a developer can create, edit, and test agents, while another user can only use deployed agents in the conversational interface and see a list of all the deployed agents.

note

By default, all platform Standard role users have the Agent Garden User role, which allows them to interact with installed agents in the conversational interface. All platform administrators have the Agent Garden administrator role.

You can assign additional privileges to a user, such as agent development capabilities through the Agent Developer role or create a custom role with granular permissions. For more information on platform roles and privileges, refer to User roles and privileges.

The following table outlines the three Agent Garden roles and their privileges.

Using agent templates

Explore more than 100 agent templates made by Boomi and Boomi Community to get started with building AI agents. These templates help to kickstart your agent creation and inspire you with a variety of examples. After installation, review and edit the configuration, including guardrails, to ensure the agent fits your business needs.

Refer to Building an agent from a template, Installing recommended agents and Installing Marketplace agents to learn more.

AI-assisted agent building

You can start building AI agents immediately using the Agent Designer home page chat interface. Enter information about what the AI agent will do. You can include details like how the agent accomplishes the tasks and describe when it reaches out to different tools for data, such as an API tool.

When you click enter, AI assistance creates the building blocks for your agent, including the profile, temperature settings, tasks, instructions, guardrails. From here, you can review and refine the AI agent, adding capabilities such as triggering Boomi integrations, calling an API, or querying a Data Hub repository.

You also build agents by importing them or building an agent from a template. Refer to Building an agent to learn more about creating tools (agent capabilities), building, testing, and deploying agents.

Using AI agents

To begin interacting with AI agents, navigate to Agent Garden > Chat. Agent Garden groups agents based on the runtime cloud where they are running. Open the drop-down menu and select an agent to start a conversation. Read Using AI Agents for more information.

In addition to conversing with your custom agents, you can use pre-installed Boomi-created AI agents in Boomi GPT to boost productivity, create automation, and streamline business outcomes. They are available to use right away within the Agent Garden Chat screen under Boomi GPT.

Embedding agents in your applications

The Boomi Agentstudio Embed Kit allows you to embed agents you create in Agentstudio directly into your own applications. Get started with the GitHub repository and explore the Boomi Embedded documentation.

Importing and exporting agents

The Agent Garden lets you export an AI agent from one Boomi Platform account and import it into another.

There are two ways you can share your agents:

  • Share your AI agent as a bundle. In Boomi Labs bundles, you can select any active agents to import into the bundle. The bundles contain the agent's YAML file and PDF with configuration instructions. Refer to Adding an AI agent asset for details.
  • Export the agent as a zip file that contains the agent's YAML file and PDF of configuration instructions. Refer to Exporting an agent for details.

Export agent in menu

After you obtain agent export files (YAML and PDF), you can use the Import Agent option in the Agent Designer to import the agent into a Boomi Platform account. Follow the instructions in the PDF to finish setting up your agent.

Check out the Templates Gallery to discover AI agent templates you can follow and setup in the Agent Designer, sparking creativity to develop your own custom agent solutions. Refer to Building an agent from a template and Installing a Marketplace agent to learn more.

Publishing agents

Refer to Publish AI Agents if you are interested in becoming a Technology Partner and sharing your AI agent recipe on the Marketplace.
